THE DETECTION OF A NEW SPECIFIC ANTIGEN IN CELLS INFECTED WITH MYXOVIRUSES

Abstract

New antigens develop in chorioallantoic membrane tissue infected with Newcastle disease virus which are evidently of a protein nature and differ serologically both from normal host cells and from viral antigens. During an influenza infection antibodies appear in mice which react specifically only with antigen from an infected lung, which indicates the appearance in infected lung cells of an antigenic component heterologous for the animal organism. The new antigens developing in infected cells under the influence of viruses of the myxogroup (NVD, PR8 and Sendai) did not differ in specific serological properties.
